Vulnerabilities

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br /> <br /> tracing: Add recursion protection in kernel stack trace recording<br /> <br /> A bug was reported about an infinite recursion caused by tracing the rcu<br /> events with the kernel stack trace trigger enabled. The stack trace code<br /> called back into RCU which then called the stack trace again.<br /> <br /> Expand the ftrace recursion protection to add a set of bits to protect<br /> events from recursion. Each bit represents the context that the event is<br /> in (normal, softirq, interrupt and NMI).<br /> <br /> Have the stack trace code use the interrupt context to protect against<br /> recursion.<br /> <br /> Note, the bug showed an issue in both the RCU code as well as the tracing<br /> stacktrace code. This only handles the tracing stack trace side of the<br /> bug. The RCU fix will be handled separately.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br /> <br /> netfilter: nf_conncount: update last_gc only when GC has been performed<br /> <br /> Currently last_gc is being updated everytime a new connection is<br /> tracked, that means that it is updated even if a GC wasn&amp;#39;t performed.<br /> With a sufficiently high packet rate, it is possible to always bypass<br /> the GC, causing the list to grow infinitely.<br /> <br /> Update the last_gc value only when a GC has been actually performed.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br /> <br /> netfs: Fix early read unlock of page with EOF in middle<br /> <br /> The read result collection for buffered reads seems to run ahead of the<br /> completion of subrequests under some circumstances, as can be seen in the<br /> following log snippet:<br /> <br /> 9p_client_res: client 18446612686390831168 response P9_TREAD tag 0 err 0<br /> ...<br /> netfs_sreq: R=00001b55[1] DOWN TERM f=192 s=0 5fb2/5fb2 s=5 e=0<br /> ...<br /> netfs_collect_folio: R=00001b55 ix=00004 r=4000-5000 t=4000/5fb2<br /> netfs_folio: i=157f3 ix=00004-00004 read-done<br /> netfs_folio: i=157f3 ix=00004-00004 read-unlock<br /> netfs_collect_folio: R=00001b55 ix=00005 r=5000-5fb2 t=5000/5fb2<br /> netfs_folio: i=157f3 ix=00005-00005 read-done<br /> netfs_folio: i=157f3 ix=00005-00005 read-unlock<br /> ...<br /> netfs_collect_stream: R=00001b55[0:] cto=5fb2 frn=ffffffff<br /> netfs_collect_state: R=00001b55 col=5fb2 cln=6000 n=c<br /> netfs_collect_stream: R=00001b55[0:] cto=5fb2 frn=ffffffff<br /> netfs_collect_state: R=00001b55 col=5fb2 cln=6000 n=8<br /> ...<br /> netfs_sreq: R=00001b55[2] ZERO SUBMT f=000 s=5fb2 0/4e s=0 e=0<br /> netfs_sreq: R=00001b55[2] ZERO TERM f=102 s=5fb2 4e/4e s=5 e=0<br /> <br /> The &amp;#39;cto=5fb2&amp;#39; indicates the collected file pos we&amp;#39;ve collected results to<br /> so far - but we still have 0x4e more bytes to go - so we shouldn&amp;#39;t have<br /> collected folio ix=00005 yet. The &amp;#39;ZERO&amp;#39; subreq that clears the tail<br /> happens after we unlock the folio, allowing the application to see the<br /> uncleared tail through mmap.<br /> <br /> The problem is that netfs_read_unlock_folios() will unlock a folio in which<br /> the amount of read results collected hits EOF position - but the ZERO<br /> subreq lies beyond that and so happens after.<br /> <br /> Fix this by changing the end check to always be the end of the folio and<br /> never the end of the file.<br /> <br /> In the future, I should look at clearing to the end of the folio here rather<br /> than adding a ZERO subreq to do this. On the other hand, the ZERO subreq can<br /> run in parallel with an async READ subreq. Further, the ZERO subreq may still<br /> be necessary to, say, handle extents in a ceph file that don&amp;#39;t have any<br /> backing store and are thus implicitly all zeros.<br /> <br /> This can be reproduced by creating a file, the size of which doesn&amp;#39;t align<br /> to a page boundary, e.g. 24998 (0x5fb2) bytes and then doing something<br /> like:<br /> <br /> xfs_io -c "mmap -r 0 0x6000" -c "madvise -d 0 0x6000" \<br /> -c "mread -v 0 0x6000" /xfstest.test/x<br /> <br /> The last 0x4e bytes should all be 00, but if the tail hasn&amp;#39;t been cleared<br /> yet, you may see rubbish there. This can be reproduced with kafs by<br /> modifying the kernel to disable the call to netfs_read_subreq_progress()<br /> and to stop afs_issue_read() from doing the async call for NETFS_READAHEAD.<br /> Reproduction can be made easier by inserting an mdelay(100) in<br /> netfs_issue_read() for the ZERO-subreq case.<br /> <br /> AFS and CIFS are normally unlikely to show this as they dispatch READ ops<br /> asynchronously, which allows the ZERO-subreq to finish first. 9P&amp;#39;s READ op is<br /> completely synchronous, so the ZERO-subreq will always happen after. It isn&amp;#39;t<br /> seen all the time, though, because the collection may be done in a worker<br /> thread.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br /> <br /> iommu/sva: invalidate stale IOTLB entries for kernel address space<br /> <br /> Introduce a new IOMMU interface to flush IOTLB paging cache entries for<br /> the CPU kernel address space. This interface is invoked from the x86<br /> architecture code that manages combined user and kernel page tables,<br /> specifically before any kernel page table page is freed and reused.<br /> <br /> This addresses the main issue with vfree() which is a common occurrence<br /> and can be triggered by unprivileged users. While this resolves the<br /> primary problem, it doesn&amp;#39;t address some extremely rare case related to<br /> memory unplug of memory that was present as reserved memory at boot, which<br /> cannot be triggered by unprivileged users. The discussion can be found at<br /> the link below.<br /> <br /> Enable SVA on x86 architecture since the IOMMU can now receive<br /> notification to flush the paging cache before freeing the CPU kernel page<br /> table pages.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br /> <br /> arm64: Set __nocfi on swsusp_arch_resume()<br /> <br /> A DABT is reported[1] on an android based system when resume from hiberate.<br /> This happens because swsusp_arch_suspend_exit() is marked with SYM_CODE_*()<br /> and does not have a CFI hash, but swsusp_arch_resume() will attempt to<br /> verify the CFI hash when calling a copy of swsusp_arch_suspend_exit().<br /> <br /> Given that there&amp;#39;s an existing requirement that the entrypoint to<br /> swsusp_arch_suspend_exit() is the first byte of the .hibernate_exit.text<br /> section, we cannot fix this by marking swsusp_arch_suspend_exit() with<br /> SYM_FUNC_*(). The simplest fix for now is to disable the CFI check in<br /> swsusp_arch_resume().<br /> <br /> Mark swsusp_arch_resume() as __nocfi to disable the CFI check.<br /> <br /> [1]<br /> [ 22.991934][ T1] Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address 0000000109170ffc<br /> [ 22.991934][ T1] Mem abort info:<br /> [ 22.991934][ T1] ESR = 0x0000000096000007<br /> [ 22.991934][ T1] EC = 0x25: DABT (current EL), IL = 32 bits<br /> [ 22.991934][ T1] SET = 0, FnV = 0<br /> [ 22.991934][ T1] EA = 0, S1PTW = 0<br /> [ 22.991934][ T1] FSC = 0x07: level 3 translation fault<br /> [ 22.991934][ T1] Data abort info:<br /> [ 22.991934][ T1] ISV = 0, ISS = 0x00000007, ISS2 = 0x00000000<br /> [ 22.991934][ T1] CM = 0, WnR = 0, TnD = 0, TagAccess = 0<br /> [ 22.991934][ T1] GCS = 0, Overlay = 0, DirtyBit = 0, Xs = 0<br /> [ 22.991934][ T1] [0000000109170ffc] user address but active_mm is swapper<br /> [ 22.991934][ T1] Internal error: Oops: 0000000096000007 [#1] PREEMPT SMP<br /> [ 22.991934][ T1] Dumping ftrace buffer:<br /> [ 22.991934][ T1] (ftrace buffer empty)<br /> [ 22.991934][ T1] Modules linked in:<br /> [ 22.991934][ T1] CPU: 0 PID: 1 Comm: swapper/0 Not tainted 6.6.98-android15-8-g0b1d2aee7fc3-dirty-4k #1 688c7060a825a3ac418fe53881730b355915a419<br /> [ 22.991934][ T1] Hardware name: Unisoc UMS9360-base Board (DT)<br /> [ 22.991934][ T1] pstate: 804000c5 (Nzcv daIF +PAN -UAO -TCO -DIT -SSBS BTYPE=--)<br /> [ 22.991934][ T1] pc : swsusp_arch_resume+0x2ac/0x344<br /> [ 22.991934][ T1] lr : swsusp_arch_resume+0x294/0x344<br /> [ 22.991934][ T1] sp : ffffffc08006b960<br /> [ 22.991934][ T1] x29: ffffffc08006b9c0 x28: 0000000000000000 x27: 0000000000000000<br /> [ 22.991934][ T1] x26: 0000000000000000 x25: 0000000000000000 x24: 0000000000000820<br /> [ 22.991934][ T1] x23: ffffffd0817e3000 x22: ffffffd0817e3000 x21: 0000000000000000<br /> [ 22.991934][ T1] x20: ffffff8089171000 x19: ffffffd08252c8c8 x18: ffffffc080061058<br /> [ 22.991934][ T1] x17: 00000000529c6ef0 x16: 00000000529c6ef0 x15: 0000000000000004<br /> [ 22.991934][ T1] x14: ffffff8178c88000 x13: 0000000000000006 x12: 0000000000000000<br /> [ 22.991934][ T1] x11: 0000000000000015 x10: 0000000000000001 x9 : ffffffd082533000<br /> [ 22.991934][ T1] x8 : 0000000109171000 x7 : 205b5d3433393139 x6 : 392e32322020205b<br /> [ 22.991934][ T1] x5 : 000000010916f000 x4 : 000000008164b000 x3 : ffffff808a4e0530<br /> [ 22.991934][ T1] x2 : ffffffd08058e784 x1 : 0000000082326000 x0 : 000000010a283000<br /> [ 22.991934][ T1] Call trace:<br /> [ 22.991934][ T1] swsusp_arch_resume+0x2ac/0x344<br /> [ 22.991934][ T1] hibernation_restore+0x158/0x18c<br /> [ 22.991934][ T1] load_image_and_restore+0xb0/0xec<br /> [ 22.991934][ T1] software_resume+0xf4/0x19c<br /> [ 22.991934][ T1] software_resume_initcall+0x34/0x78<br /> [ 22.991934][ T1] do_one_initcall+0xe8/0x370<br /> [ 22.991934][ T1] do_initcall_level+0xc8/0x19c<br /> [ 22.991934][ T1] do_initcalls+0x70/0xc0<br /> [ 22.991934][ T1] do_basic_setup+0x1c/0x28<br /> [ 22.991934][ T1] kernel_init_freeable+0xe0/0x148<br /> [ 22.991934][ T1] kernel_init+0x20/0x1a8<br /> [ 22.991934][ T1] ret_from_fork+0x10/0x20<br /> [ 22.991934][ T1] Code: a9400a61 f94013e0 f9438923 f9400a64 (b85fc110)<br /> <br /> [catalin.marinas@arm.com: commit log updated by Mark Rutland]

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br /> <br /> dpll: Prevent duplicate registrations<br /> <br /> Modify the internal registration helpers dpll_xa_ref_{dpll,pin}_add()<br /> to reject duplicate registration attempts.<br /> <br /> Previously, if a caller attempted to register the same pin multiple<br /> times (with the same ops, priv, and cookie) on the same device, the core<br /> silently increments the reference count and return success. This behavior<br /> is incorrect because if the caller makes these duplicate registrations<br /> then for the first one dpll_pin_registration is allocated and for others<br /> the associated dpll_pin_ref.refcount is incremented. During the first<br /> unregistration the associated dpll_pin_registration is freed and for<br /> others WARN is fired.<br /> <br /> Fix this by updating the logic to return `-EEXIST` if a matching<br /> registration is found to enforce a strict "register once" policy.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br /> <br /> wifi: ath12k: fix dead lock while flushing management frames<br /> <br /> Commit [1] converted the management transmission work item into a<br /> wiphy work. Since a wiphy work can only run under wiphy lock<br /> protection, a race condition happens in below scenario:<br /> <br /> 1. a management frame is queued for transmission.<br /> 2. ath12k_mac_op_flush() gets called to flush pending frames associated<br /> with the hardware (i.e, vif being NULL). Then in ath12k_mac_flush()<br /> the process waits for the transmission done.<br /> 3. Since wiphy lock has been taken by the flush process, the transmission<br /> work item has no chance to run, hence the dead lock.<br /> <br /> &gt;From user view, this dead lock results in below issue:<br /> <br /> wlp8s0: authenticate with xxxxxx (local address=xxxxxx)<br /> wlp8s0: send auth to xxxxxx (try 1/3)<br /> wlp8s0: authenticate with xxxxxx (local address=xxxxxx)<br /> wlp8s0: send auth to xxxxxx (try 1/3)<br /> wlp8s0: authenticated<br /> wlp8s0: associate with xxxxxx (try 1/3)<br /> wlp8s0: aborting association with xxxxxx by local choice (Reason: 3=DEAUTH_LEAVING)<br /> ath12k_pci 0000:08:00.0: failed to flush mgmt transmit queue, mgmt pkts pending 1<br /> <br /> The dead lock can be avoided by invoking wiphy_work_flush() to proactively<br /> run the queued work item. Note actually it is already present in<br /> ath12k_mac_op_flush(), however it does not protect the case where vif<br /> being NULL. Hence move it ahead to cover this case as well.<br /> <br /> Tested-on: WCN7850 hw2.0 PCI WLAN.HMT.1.1.c5-00302-QCAHMTSWPL_V1.0_V2.0_SILICONZ-1.115823.3

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br /> <br /> platform/x86: hp-bioscfg: Fix kobject warnings for empty attribute names<br /> <br /> The hp-bioscfg driver attempts to register kobjects with empty names when<br /> the HP BIOS returns attributes with empty name strings. This causes<br /> multiple kernel warnings:<br /> <br /> kobject: (00000000135fb5e6): attempted to be registered with empty name!<br /> WARNING: CPU: 14 PID: 3336 at lib/kobject.c:219 kobject_add_internal+0x2eb/0x310<br /> <br /> Add validation in hp_init_bios_buffer_attribute() to check if the<br /> attribute name is empty after parsing it from the WMI buffer. If empty,<br /> log a debug message and skip registration of that attribute, allowing the<br /> module to continue processing other valid attributes.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br /> <br /> igc: Reduce TSN TX packet buffer from 7KB to 5KB per queue<br /> <br /> The previous 7 KB per queue caused TX unit hangs under heavy<br /> timestamping load. Reducing to 5 KB avoids these hangs and matches<br /> the TSN recommendation in I225/I226 SW User Manual Section 7.5.4.<br /> <br /> The 8 KB "freed" by this change is currently unused. This reduction<br /> is not expected to impact throughput, as the i226 is PCIe-limited<br /> for small TSN packets rather than TX-buffer-limited.
